I work in a hospital in a major city.
The tax bill fucks over emergency rooms because it eliminates the personal mandate keeping Obamacare afloat.

Less people having insurance means less people having checkups, which allows diseases to progress and become more expensive to treat. It also means the ER becomes the only place most people can go for treatment.

It also means hospitals get reimbursed less, which can lead to hospital closures which fucks over EVERYBODY . You will need an ER at least once in your life - probably at least 10 times.

It is overwhelmingly likely whatever gains you have in your paycheck will be consumed by healthcare costs.
